BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is a block connection diagram showing an embodiment of a video game device according to the present invention.

In FIG. 1, the video game device is mainly composed of a control device 1 and an operating device 2 and a monitor 3. The operation device 2 is a device that is connected to the control device 1 (the input / output control circuit 6) and is operated by the player, such as a joystick, a button, and a switch. The monitor 3 displays the image output signal of the control device 1 as a visible image.

The control device 1 includes an input / output control circuit 6 and a CPU.
The circuit 7 and the screen memory 14 are included. The input / output control circuit 6 detects a state in which the player has operated a joystick, a button, a switch or the like (operation device 2), and transmits the detected state to the CPU circuit 7. CPU circuit 7
The transmission and reception of signals to and from are performed via the system bus 8.
The work memory 9 is used as a work area of the CPU circuit 7. The program of the CPU circuit 7 is stored in the program memory 10. The character memory 12 stores the character data displayed on the monitor 3 by writing in the screen memory 14.

When the CPU circuit 7 outputs an image,
Image data is written to the screen memory 14 via the system bus 8. The monitor 3 displays the image data written in the screen memory 14 as a visible image. The player looks at the visible image on the monitor 3 while operating the control device 2
To operate the game.

FIG. 2 is a flow chart showing a program of the CPU circuit 7 according to the first embodiment of the video game apparatus of the present invention. The program is started by being called from a main routine (not shown). When the program starts, first in step S1, a sentence is input. The input may be keying on a keyboard, or may be specifying a text file such as an email. In step S2, the completion of the sentence (text data) is confirmed, and in step S3, word search is performed.

The word search determines how many key words are included in a sentence (text data) by searching a database in which words are associated with numerical values (positive or negative values). That is, in step S4, it is determined whether or not there is a word that has been caught in the search. If it is determined that there is no word that has been caught in the search, an object (object) having a low rank is determined in step S5. In step S6, the sum of the numerical values (positive or negative values) is calculated,
In step S7, the total value is output.

In step S8, an object corresponding to the numerical value is displayed on the screen of the monitor 3, and the process returns to the main routine (not shown). 2 as the object described in step S5 and step S8
When 00 types are set, 10,000,000,0
A table is created by associating 200 types of objects (objects) with a basic number of 00, and objects (objects) corresponding to the numerical values are obtained in steps S5 and S8.
I am going to decide.

FIG. 3 is a flow chart showing a program of the CPU circuit 7, showing a second embodiment of the video game device according to the present invention. The program is started by being called from a main routine (not shown). When the program starts, first, in step S11, an arbitrary image is determined. The decision may be to select the image displayed on the monitor 3. In step S12, data search is performed. The data search here means to add the capacitance value of the image digit by digit. The image capacitance value is a color component (RGB or the like) for each pixel (pixel), and is calculated by summing each color component.

In step S13, it is determined whether or not there is an object (object) adapted to the numerical value obtained in step S12. When it is determined that there is no object, step S13 is performed.
At 14, the object is determined to have a low rank. In step S15, the total of the numerical values is calculated, and in step S16, the total value is output. In step S17, the object corresponding to the numerical value is displayed on the screen of the monitor 3, and the process returns to the main routine (not shown).

When 200 types are set as the objects described in steps S14 and S17, 1
200 for basic numbers consisting of, 000,000,000,000
Objects of different types are made to correspond to each other and are made into a table, and the objects corresponding to the numerical values are determined in steps S14 and S17.

[0018]

As described above, according to the invention of claim 1, the step of inputting a sentence (S1) and the step of retrieving whether the key word is included in the sentence (S4). And a step of calculating the sum of positive or negative numerical values associated with the word (S7), and a step of determining the object associated with the numerical value (S7,
Since S8) is provided, each word included in the sentence obtained with or without relation to the game progress is given a numerical value, and the subsequent game progress is determined by the obtained numerical value. This makes it difficult to predict the progress of the game and keeps the player interested in the game at all times.

According to the second aspect of the invention, the step of determining the image (S11), the step of retrieving the value corresponding to the image (S12), and the step of calculating the total value of the values corresponding to the image (S15). ) And the step of determining the object associated with the total value (S16, S17)
Since, is provided, the numerical value is assigned to each image included in the image obtained with or without relation to the game progress, and the subsequent game progress is determined by the obtained numeric value. This makes it difficult to predict and keeps players interested in the game at all times.
